Effects of Glucagon-like Peptide-1 Receptor Agonists on Skin Homeostasis and Skin Aging Processes.
Review in Journal of clinical medicine, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is an incretin hormone involved in glucose regulation. Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) are widely used in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus and obesity, as well as in cardiovascular risk reduction. Recent evidence suggests that GLP-1 receptors are expressed in cutaneous tissues; however, their role in skin homeostasis and aging remains insufficiently clarified. This review summarizes recent experimental and clinical studies examining the effects of GLP-1 receptor agonists on skin homeostasis, wound healing, regeneration, and aging processes. Experimental data indicate that GLP-1 RAs may promote wound healing through modulation of inflammatory pathways, enhancement of keratinocyte migration, improved microvascular perfusion, and support of fibroblast function. Antioxidant and cytoprotective mechanisms have also been described. Conversely, rapid weight loss associated with GLP-1 RA therapy has been linked to structural facial changes, including reduction in dermal white adipose tissue and decreased collagen synthesis, which may clinically resemble accelerated skin aging. Mechanistic findings suggest heterogeneous and pathway-dependent effects. Overall, the impact of GLP-1 receptor agonists on skin biology appears multifaceted, and further well-designed clinical studies are required to determine their precise dermatological implications.
